In this, my second solo episode - I wanted to spend some time trying to demystify Generative AI for CSMs and CS leaders alike. According to statistics, only 25% of CS workers utilize AI in the workplace on a regular basis, which I think is WAY too low - especially considering how stretched thin most CSMs really are.
So - in this episode, we focus on proper prompting, a few tools that exist out there and a plethora of use-cases for you to dig into:
0:00:00 - Introduction
0:03:55 - Topic introduction. Why GenAI for CSMs
0:08:42 - Why prompting is a fundamental skill to have
0:09:36 - Using the RISEN framework for prompting
0:11:31 - Taking care with proprietary and sensitive information when using Gen AI
0:19:58 - Why it’s a bad idea to just copy and send, without proofreading and personalizing
0:23:01 - Utilizing ChatGPTs memory feature to prevent having to copy/paste your prompts
0:23:55 - Teaching ChatGPT on my tone of voice
0:26:19 - Chaining prompts
0:27:55 - Integrating this into your daily workflow
0:30:21 - ChatGPT vs. Perplexity vs. Google
0:32:42 - Perplexity research use cases for CSMs
0:36:30 - The proliferation of new tools
0:37:19 - AgentCopilot & HeyGen create personalized video for your contacts at scale

Invariably, when you speak to someone in CS about Rob Zambito, the first comment that almost always comes back is, "He's a good guy". ...and I couldn't agree more.
I wouldn't say that I've known Rob for a very long - but the time we've spent both on Zoom and in-person has always been extremely high-quality, funny, impactful, personal and full of great questions.
This is the same approach Rob takes with all of his clients at Success Scaled, where he advises seed to B-series companies on CS strategies. He asks A LOT of questions and puts together a good picture of current-state before digging into solutioning.
This is also what makes him a phenomenal guest for this episode of the show because he has seen A LOT of stuff work - and a lot of stuff not work!
